I fail to see how being disappointed about losing a series in which we were up 3-1 is whining or entitlement.

Maybe we weren't supposed to make playoffs, but once we're up by that much, we were supposed to win.

I'm not angry or calling for anyone's head, I'm just deflated. This shouldn't have happened, upstart or not.

I agree, total up and down season. Injuries, young guys, more injuries, good play..absolutely terrible play..more injuries..squeak in..upset a #2 seed..have our foot on the #1 seed's throat...s***t the bed for two games...look gassed for 2 periods in game 7..put in a helluva effort in period 3...and lose on some kind of make up call for a make up call deflection on a goalie who if he see's a shot is going to save it. Cocktails?

Roller coaster of a season..tough way to go down..learned alot about our young guys..feel like we may just be a couple pieces away . Jimmy is top notch and love watching that guy. Signing off for a while..too hard to listen to the GMRWings types around here who complain about everything.. Have a good summer to the real fans out there.

Agreed yes, the team did exceed expectations by a whole lot but seriously blowing away a 3:1 series lead is a choke-job no matter how you look at it. The Hawks are more talented and whatever, but the Wings were up 3:1! against a so called better team and then for whatever reason they've decided to lay an absolute egg in game 5 and let the Hawks lick some blood, the rest is the sad history.

The Offseason of truth ...

Welcome to hockeytown Jonas aka Lundquist 2 Gustavsson!

blank cheque for The Captain or Jim Star Nil please..

<< Win it for Mr. Hockey ! f*** this league THANK YOU BABS FOR 10 MARVELLOUS YEARS

Let me start by saying this: I didn't think this team would make it past the 1st round. They surprised me when they knocked Anaheim out. However, I had a bad feeling they'd blow their 3-1 lead in this series. We went further than expected, but we've got glaring needs. The better team won.

Also, I can't believe some of you are seriously calling that Bolland hit a missed boarding call. Shame on yourselves. Nobody would be talking about that hit if Seabrook didn't score. Give me a break.

"Ice hockey is a form of disorderly conduct in which the score is kept."

Saying we lost cause of officials is ridiculous they blessed us that no goal

Officials barely called anything, regardless of how I was disappointed in the lack of boarding calls mentioned earlier in the thread. I thought these refs were the right guys, Stephen Walkom I think was the lead ref? I have always thought he was a good ref, along with O' Halloran (Holmstrom/Detroit bias aside, although I have to say he hasn't been as bad as he was)

We lost because Chicago was the better team, and that was probably because of their talent. I'm proud of the Wings.

If shaw gets suspended that is just salt in the wound. Complete dirty play and you know what pisses me off even more is I think flip was hurting before that, and shaw went to the bench to meet him there. If the league continues to employ these horrible officials, I will never watch a game on their s*** excuse for a national network.
end rant:

Good season for the wings, excited for next year. Going to be in the east, and these young guys are going to be fun to watch. Hopefully tatar will be up and flip is gone.

Guys like you just crave attention..from your picture of some fake titties on your profile..to your fair weather band wagon comments..you get around here exactly what you don't get in real life...ATTENTION....which is exactly why you spend 17 hours a day on this site. It's like a train wreck though..I can't stop lookign to what kind of amazing insight you will come up with next.

Congrats to the Blackhawks, but also to the Wings. What a season ending with a lucky OT-Goal in Game 7. I'm pretty exited to see what they can do next season with what is hopefully a stronger rooster. Let's GO Wings !

So that's what this team needed to win... A rooster... I never would have thought of that one. Quick, someone call Kenny.

Honestly I thought Z was still outstanding. Think about it, the guy has to spend so much energy trying to shutdown toews/Kane/sharp that he has barely no energy to play offense. And you can be hard on pavel all you want, but I never will cause I know he's probably the hardest working guy in the league, and nobody has a right to s*** on him given what he does/ has done for this franchise!
